The Lie that we live by Tony Lohnes


Good Morning everyone,  
           

It's been awhile since I wrote an article for my blog, life has a way of passing you by doesn't it?  I don't know if any of you watched this video on You tube or not? It's worth watching and it's not done by Save Our Sundays.  The Lie that we Live - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipe6CMvW0Dg   . It's not hard from my eyes when I watch that video, that the corporations control all of us. The 1% are controlling each and every one of us. My blind folds are off are yours?
I was asked an important question by a friend. Tony, do you feel that if you passed away that every thing you have done made a difference in someone's life?  I know my blog and my interviews has made a difference in people's lives and it has people thinking. The lie that we live. We are living it with Sunday shopping.  http://saveoursundays.blogspot.ca/2015/11/remembrance-day-day-to-reflect-on-and.html

You're government lied to you and we let them get away with it. When I watched the"The Lie we Live" by Spencer Cathcart, it reminded me of my battle. How can we possibly care about the environment ,when we don't care about ourselves any more? We don't care about gathering with our families any more? A day to bond and spend together as a family?I'm disappointed in the media who completely misguided the general public on what really happened with Sunday shopping. The churches, have you noticed no longer mention the day of rest any more? Have you noticed that the unions, all government parties also ignored and didn't talk about what really happened? The best way for a politician to get around all of this is one word....silence. Don't say anything.
On June 12, 2016, I wrote every member and leader in our legislature, I have one request, for our government to come clean and admit we were all lied to about that plebiscite. Not one of our MLA's or leaders, including Stephen MacNeil would take the time to answer me. I have to hand it to one radio talk show host, Rick Howe who admitted that the plebiscite was binding, for years he spoke on radio and said it wasn't binding .

Not mentioned on CTV, CBC or Global people! Lied to YES we were. The courts never struck down anything, BUT we continue to support these corporations and media THAT lied to you. You're out shopping making someone work for less than 15 dollars an hour making the 1% rich seven days a week. Just to make a point how corporations can persuade you to do what they want anytime, just look at those self serve check outs. Do you know you're still paying the same amount of money whether you have someone to wait on you or not? You're told that if you do not want to wait in line to go to a self serve check out. Hello people, they are getting you to work for them for free and putting someone out of a job. You're making that 1% even richer by supporting that. These corporations also persuaded you to think that other occupations had to work on Sundays, like restaurants , call centers etc, so the rest of us should have to work on Sundays too. Instead of pushing for legislation to give other workers the same rights, we were played off against one another.  People isn't it time we wake up? Distractions like this new Pokemon Go  game are to keep us all from the real issues at hand. The lie that we live, we are living it each and every day. Just remember a future with a day of rest and a good environment is a good foundation to live for. Question at the end of the day, are you going to continue to "Live the Lies that we live"?

Are we going to continue to think it's acceptable for our politicians to continue to break promises? These people represent you and when they ignore and don't answer questions, what does this tell you people? Here's another challenge...this is to all political leaders , MLA's and our premier. I'm trying again, will you please come clean and tell Nova Scotians the truth about Sunday shopping? Please  !!!
